Completely agree. Before the game was released i think i clocked about 5 hours on the demo alone. The graphics, the voice acting and as you said the atmosphere made it fantastic. I love the first level in the snow and you just see people slipping on the ice. Little touches like that made the game world such a pleasure to be in.

Mafia 1 was a lot better than the second one IMO. The second one wasn't bad at, but, it was lacking and it didn't improve over the first one very much or at all.

The first was so close to perfection (in my eyes) that I didn't see it as a bad thing. I was in love with the first though so maybe that's why more of the same was good. I also loved the scene in Mafia 2 that was a tip off to the first game.

Everything was fantastic in the first car handling was even better than the 2nd one! The story was lacking though in 2

Mafia 1 was really impressive, the story was great. As for the 2nd it was an average story.

Well now after playing straight 3 hours of mafia 2 i can say that the game is probably one of the most realistic ones I have ever played. The streets look very detailed and alive, the snow and dirt on cars looks extremely realistic and things like gasoline and repair of the motor when its damage make the game great. The story is also nice, I am really enjoying it but cant compared it to the first Mafia story as I havent completed that game. It runs quiet well on my nvidia card, I play on max settings with vertical sync turned off and it runs well most of the time.
